The implementation of online learning environments has become a key objective for universities throughout the world. The use of information and communication technologies for online delivery in education has allowed diverse learning needs to be met. New methodologies for using information systems are now possible. Information and communication technology has the potential to reshape learning environments and to challenge established approaches to teaching and learning.

The objective of this paper is to examine how understanding of instructional design theory and models provides appropriate conceptual frameworks for online delivery. The paper will examine key components of instructional theory and their relationship to online learning environments. It also shows the need for instructional theory and models to be applied responsibly to new online learning environments. A conceptual framework for online delivery that has been implemented within the School of Education (NSW) at Australian Catholic University is presented in some detail.
